Those rock'n'roll drummers are tough!

Even the 12 year old girl ones. A 12-year old girl in New York City, Grace Bergere, survived a 180 foot fall down a chimney and escaped with only a broken hip. When not taking swan dives down chimneys, she is the drummer in a band called "Fluffy Skulls". Clearly, she landed on her head, a drummer's densest part. Ba da boom! (Yeah, you know how us guitar players love ribbing drummers about their thick skulls, heh!).

  3. Mold -- drummers don't tend to be very intellectual people, as you'd expect from people who spend a lot of time beating things with sticks. Thus drummer jokes :-).

    MB - I actually worked as a pizza delivery dude during my college days, but it still took me about 30 seconds to get your drummer's joke. So I guess in this case, the guitar player is the one with the dense head, heh.

  5. How can you tell the drum riser is level?

    The drummer drools equally from both sides of the mouth.

    Ba-dum ba-dum.
